What I did: • set interpreter_constaraints to >=3.9 • have python3.9 on path, from brew yet the message complains about 3.8, and from /Frameworks. Weird.

I think using the system Python on Mac may give wonky results. Consider installing

pyenv

and install a Python version that way, and use

<PYENV>

in pants.toml for the interpreter search path. Or using a Python provided by

brew

should work well too…

Thanks Andreas. I suppose I should have written, but I'm using python3.9 from brew. It IS the first thing on the path.

Ah, ok. It is the :

Copy code

/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Library/Frameworks/Python3.framework/Versions/3.8/bin/python3.8

that made me suspicious…

I agree! I am suspicious as well. That's why the questions. But I did do those things...

so it looks like it picks that Python despite your other Pythons available… unless I’m mistaken.

Right.. I’ll defer this further to the more experienced Pants maintainers, see if they can figure this out with your help. They usually becomes active around this time of day..
